This was a quick read about the two young women: the daughter of James Joyce and the daughter of a preeminent Joycean scholar. My favourite quote referred to the daughter of James Joyce: "Lucia's father was born on the festival of light. February 2nd: the Catholic festival of Candlemas, midway between winter solstice and the spring equinox. But the name the Joyce's gave Lucia was light itself". #happybloomsday
charl08 Thought this was a fascinating book although it reminds me I've still not picked up Dubliners... 8y
Onioons @charl08 I read the Dubliners in college and enjoyed it, but after that it's gonna have to be Joyce graphic novels for me 😊 still haven't gotten past chp 1 of Ulysses! 8y
